It is important that the FASTEN THE MACHINEmachine be installed in a location where it TO THE BIN WITH THEhas enough space around it to be HARDWARE SUPPLIEDaccessible for service, usually a minimum of WITH THE ICEMAKER6 inches. Try to avoid hot, dirty andcrowded locations. Be sure that the locationfor the machine is within the limitationsdescribed on page 3. Storage Bin:Tip the storage bin on its back, using partsof the carton to protect the exterior finish.Install the legs into the threaded holes in thebottom of the bin. Turn the leg levelers allthe way in preparation for leveling later.Return the bin to the upright position,remove paper covering the bin gasket.Install bin top if required, follow thedirections included with the bin top.Note: Do not push bin into position, but lift itthere. Pushing a bin, especially one with icein it, can cause damage to the legs and theleg mounts. Ice Maker:The machine is heavy, so the use of amechanical lift is recommended for liftingthe machine high enough to install on top ofthe bin. After the unit is placed on the bin,line it up so it is even with the back, left, andright sides. Secure the machine to the binwith the hardware provided with themachine.Remove the front panel and remove thestyrofoam shipping blocks from under thegearmotor, the top of the ice chute, andfrom between the gearmotor and the rightside panel.

NME1254R & FME1504RCLEANING and SANITATIONA Scotsman Ice System represents a sizable investment of time and money in any company’s business.In order to receive the best return for that investment, it MUST receive periodic maintenance.It is the USER’S RESPONSIBILITY to see that the unit is properly maintained. It is always preferable, andless costly in the long run, to avoid possible down time by keeping it clean; adjusting it as needed; and byreplacing worn parts before they can cause failure. The following is a list of recommended maintenancethat will help keep the machine running with a minimum of problems.Maintenance and Cleaning should be scheduled at a minimum of twice per year.Electrical power will be ON when doing in place 9.

NME1254R & FME1504RREFRIGERATION SYSTEM SERVICEGeneral: This ice machine uses R-404A refrigerantand polyolester oil. Do NOT use mineral oil in thisrefrigeration system. ·When the system is serviced, a special liquid line drier is required. It is included with replacement compressors. ·R-404A is not compatible with mineral oil so these ice machines use Polyolester oil. Polyolester oil absorbs water very easily. A system opened for service must be re-sealed as soon as possible (15 minutes maximum). ·Special leak detection equipment is required to locate small refrigerant leaks. Usually a leak detector capable of detecting a Halongenated refrigerant or HFC-134a will work. Check with the leak detector manufacturer if in doubt. ·Evacuate to 300 microns. ·Liquid charge the systemAccess Valves: To use the access valves: ·Remove the cap from the stem, use a 3/16\" allen wrench to check that the valve is CLOSED.

NME1254R & FME1504RWhat to Do Before Calling for ServiceIf the machine is off, not making ice:1. Check the water supply to the icemachine. The machine is designed to shutoff if there is no water to it. Check the filtersif there are any.2. Check the power supply to the machine.Reset the breaker if it is tripped.3. If both water and power have beenchecked and are available, try switchingthe power Off and then On. After 2 minutesthe machine should restart.If this procedure restarts the machine,service should be called the next time themachine stops. January 2000 Page 34
